Pc promoter from class 2 integrons and the cassette transcription pattern it evokes
, 2011 Integrons are considered expression systems due to the presence of Pc promoters that drive gene cassette transcription. The role and configurations of Pc are well known in class 1 integrons; however, this region has not yet been identified in class 2 ...

Detection of Multidrug-Resistant Integrons Associated with Acinetobacter baumannii Isolated from Clinical and Environmental Samples [PDF]
The emergence of multidrug resistance (MDR) among pathogenic bacteria is a root cause of severe infections. It is threatening to observe that MDR is also found in ESKAPE (Enterococcus faecium, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter ...

The evaluation of class 1 to 3 integrons in Salmonella and antimicrobial resistance pattern isolated from Ross 308 broiler chickens [PDF]
Network Biology, 2019 High prevalent of multiple drug resistant (MDR) Salmonella is considered as a threat for human's health. Integrons are one of the most important factors that can contribute to the occurrence of MDR bacteria.

Characterization of the novel In1059 harbouring VIM gene cassette
Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2017 Background VIM-type enzyme encodes the most widely acquired metallo-β-lactamases in Gram- negative bacteria. To obtain current epidemiological data for integrons from enterobacteriae in hospital, the study characterizes the genetic structure in In1059 by

Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.Chemical structures of three β‐lactam classes and the substrate‐binding pockets (SBPs) of B1 metallo‐β‐lactamases (MBLs) were compared. Structural compatibility between β‐lactams and MBL SBPs correlates with enzymatic activity, providing insights into the substrate spectrum of MBLs and β‐lactam resistance.

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Livestock manure is a valuable agricultural resource but may introduce antibiotic residues and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) into the environment. This review critically evaluates the fate of antibiotics and ARGs during manure composting and identifies the principal factors controlling their attenuation.

Importance of integrons in the diffusion of resistance [PDF]
Veterinary Research, 2001 Horizontal transfer of resistance genes is a successful mechanism for the transmission and dissemination of multiple drug resistance among bacterial pathogens. The impact of horizontally transmitted genetic determinants in the evolution of resistance is particularly evident when resistance genes are physically associated in clusters and transferred en ...

Integron Prevalence and Diversity in Manured Soil [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2011 ABSTRACT The levels of integron abundance and diversity in soil amended with pig slurry were studied. Real-time PCR illustrated a significant increase in class 1 integron prevalence after slurry application, with increased prevalence still evident at 10 months after application.
